Entering Programming
• Hold the “continuous” button for five seconds until “GROUP DOSE
SETTING” appears.
• Navigate menus and adjust variables using B1 and B2, use the
Continuous Button to enter and confirm changes.
Setting Tare Time and Stop-Early
• Enter Programming and navigate to SCALE CONFIGURATION.
• Set “Stop-Early”
The “Stop-Early” parameter is an offset, which closes the brew valve
before the target beverage mass is reached. The purpose of this is to
allow for the residual liquid in portafilter to complete the beverage,
without going over. You can easily calculate how many grams early
you should stop by brewing a shot in mass mode, and subtracting your
target from the final mass of the beverage. The difference is a good
starting point, you may need to adjust depending on your flow rate.
• Set “Tare Time”
The “Tare Time” parameter sets at what moment the machine will tare
the cup. The goal is to allow you a few seconds after starting the shot
in which to place the cup on the scale tray. If the cup is placed on the
scale after the tare time, the weight of the cup will be counted toward
the final beverage mass. Also, any coffee that has made it into the cup
before the tare time will not be counted toward the final beverage mass.
Set Group Mode
Enter Programming, select mode per group.
Brewing with “Continuous”
The continuous mode is a manual mode, and will not self-terminate.
• Load portafilter to desired dose, engage in group.
• Start shot using the continuous button, making sure cup is in place
before the programmed tare time.
• The weight of beverage will appear live on the display
as the shot brews.
• Terminate shot manually when desired beverage mass is achieved,
by pressing the continuous button again.
Brewing in Mass Mode
In mass mode, the brew cycle will terminate once a programmed beverage
weight has been reached.
• Enter desired target beverage mass in programming.
• Load portafilter to desired dose, engage in group.
• Start shot using programmed button.
• The target weight will display until the tare time, at which point the cup
weight will be tared.
• The shot will self-terminate when programmed beverage
mass is reached.
